TheCaptain visited on 27th Jun 2005 - their rating: Cond: 2 Amb: 3 Access: 5 This poor thing is a bit of a mess. Difficult to find without a detailed map, but only a few dozen metres from a track, on top of a good sized mound, to the east of the town of Erquy. What remains is basically a large jumble of stones on top of a mound. It was probably a very large dolmen with entry passage, but the stones have mostly broken into a heap. One large section of capstone still sits on two bits of upright, but the rest is all on the ground. The stones cover an area about 6m by 6m, and several edge set slabs can be made out. Thankfully it is all tended to, and the undergrowth had been recently cut when I visited.
